There is a $2 entrance fee. Pictured are Lee Creech, Jackie Blackburn, Annie Sagar and Kelly Ross. By LAI RA ELLIOTT Arts flditor In 1966 Forrest Read's poetry class was canceled because only three students had signed up to take the course. Read, an instructor in the English department, couldn't believe there was so little interest in poetry in Chapel Hill, so he started a weekly poetry forum. Over 100 people attended the first reading. The weekly forums ran through that year. Each session was packed with students and townspeople perched on window sills and crowded on stairs. People were "chomping at the bit to read" as well as to listen. Read commented at the time. , This year, rather.than teach a second course. Read is reinstating the weekly poetry forum. He hopes the series will become a permanent appendage of the English department. Advertised as "free" and "for everybody." Read also hopes the series' appeal will reach beyond campus. The forum will include "anybody's work and poets of all time. It's for the faculty here, the townspeople here, the students here. children here -everybody," Read said. hollowing his 1966 precedent. Read is beginning the series with a program entitled "The House That Jack Built," at 4:30 p.m. Thursday in Greenlaw 101. AH poems in this reading are modeled on the nursery rhyme Tfw House That Jack Built. The program includes Ringing the Belli by Anne Sexton, written from a mad house; Visits To Saint Elizabeth's by Elizabeth Bishop, written while imprisoned for treachery against the United States and American Dream 1968 by Forrest Read, which adapts the Walt Whitman poem to the emotions of the Vietnam War period. It is "about dissolution with the feeling that the American Dream would outlast that catastrophic error," Read said. "This program will establish the basic fundamentals of poetry as I see it." Read said, "from the nursery rhyme to insanity, imprisonment and politics." The program for the next three forums already is established. The second reading, "Childhood Poems and Songs," Jan. 24. will feature poems for little children. Read and Mary Margaret Russell, author of Iris Hill, will read and sing. The third forum. "Prison Poems 1541-1979," Jan. 3 1 . is a "tough program," said Read. Every poem to be read was w ritten by persons in jaU or concentration camps from Sir Thomas Wyatt to Ezra Pound. Featuring the work and reading of Read's entire family, the fourth forum. "The House That Ruth Built," Feb. 7, is about family, love and American traditions as symbolized in the legendary figure Babe Ruth. Read, who labeled himself as principally a scholar and only a part-time poet, will be the main reader in these first programs. After that the programming will be "very liberal and wide open," Read said. Anyone who wishes to read or have his poetry read should contact Read, who will direct the series through the year.

Each item will be run at feast wtce. By TOM MOORE Staff Writer The Carolina Union film schedule for this semester features so many good movies that it scares me. As a confessed film junkie, 1 will drop anything schoolwork, dates, eating for the high of a good movie. Thanks to the film committee, it looks like I'm only going to have M onday nights free this semester for $choolwork, etc. Tuesdays through Sundays will be spent watching the flickering screen. There isn't one film 1 want to miss. The film committee members should pat themselves on the back a few dozen times for their selections. Unlike most college film societies who pride themselves on showing whatever has just been released in 16mm, the Carolina Union film committee takes great care in their choices. They manage to include films for all ranges of taste. For horror flick fans the film committee is sponsoring a Macabre Film Festival featuring some of the most terrifying, scream-inspiring spookers made in the United States during the 1930s. The festival includes The Mask of Fu Manchu with ghoulish Boris Karloff; Mad Love with the eerie bug-eyed Peter Lorre; Island Of The Lost Souls with the fiendish Charles Laughton and the gruesome Bela Lugosi; and Dr. Jekyland Mr. Hyde, in which Frederic March gives his Academy Award winning performance as the two-faced doctor. The film committee is also showing The Creature Of The Black Lagoon in its Lesser-known films run DURHAM Good news for film fanatics. The Durham Arts Council has started a film society devoted to screening lesser known films. The Arts Council film series starts January 23 with performances at 7 and 9:30 p.m. in St. Joseph's Performance Center, 804 Fayetteville St. The first film will be Federico Fellini's Nights of Cabria.ihe movie of a prostitute seeking love for her services. It won an Academy Award for Best Foreign Film in 1957. The series continues each Wednesday for nine successive weeks.

All Rights Reserved original 3-D version, which means lor a couple of weeks after the showing a lot of people will be running around campus , wearing funny glasses. Cinema For the intellectual types, the film committee is sponsoring films by Luchino Visconti, Eric Rohmer and a . series of films by the important European directors Jean-Luc Godard, Alain Tanner and Werner Herzog. For those who like war movies, the committee is showing A Night Of War Documentaries, directed by Hollywood biggies John Ford, William Wyler and John Huston. These shorts, financed by the U.S. government, were used to promote the war effort and are rarely shown today.

He will speak on alleged abuses by the shah at 4 p.m. today in Hamilton Hall. The speech is sponsored by the Ad Hoc Committee to Support the American Delegation to Iran. For film junkies, like myself, the schedule offers several delights that seldom are screened anywhere. The Union offers Erich Von Stroheim's silent classic - Greed; Mr. Arkadin and 777? Trial, two films by Orson Welles; THX 1138, Goeorge Lucas first feature. Comedian Albert Brooks' first film Real Life is also scheduled. Also offered are Thunder Over Mexico and A Time In Tfie Sun. compiled from footage shot by Russian director Sergei Eisenstein for his aborted features about Mexico.

The Boys From Brazil. Norma Rae. Manhattan, and Watership Dow n. I have only skimmed the highlights in a schedule of highlights. 1 really shouldn't fear for my academic average this semester.
